This exclusion applies regardless of the form, style or denomination of any such claim of “market timing”, “late trading”, “soft dollar activities” or “fees”, and regardless of whether such claim is criminal, administrative or civil, including, without limitation, claims alleging breach of contract, failure to supervise, negligent supervision or negligence of any kind, controlling person liability, breach of fiduciary duty, personal profiting, criminal activity, market manipulation, violation of any law related to mutual funds or variable life insurance or variable annuities, misrepresentation, estoppel, repudiation of any commitment, the failure to monitor, detect, identify or remediate “market timing”, “short-term trading” or “late trading” or any other theory of liability. “Market timing” means the making of short term purchases or sales of mutual fund shares or the separate accounts or sub accounts of a life insurance company contrary to or in violation of the mutual fund’s or life insurance company’s prospectus or other representation to investors, or any policy, limitation, agreement or procedure of the mutual fund or life insurance company, or contrary to or in violation of any state or federal statute or regulation; and any conduct associated with any of the above, including, without limitation: (1) the waiver of redemption fees associated with “short-term trading”; (2) the failure to abide by written representations regarding the permissibility of “short-term trading” or the mutual fund’s or life insurance company’s efforts to monitor or prevent “short-term trading”; (3) the receipt of fees or any other form of compensation from certain investors in exchange for providing such investors with “short-term trading” privileges not available to other investors. “Short-term trading” means the purchase or sale of shares of a mutual fund or the separate accounts or sub accounts of a life insurance company in a time period less than that provided in the mutual fund’s or life insurance company’s prospectus or other agreement or in violation of the policies, limitation, agreements or procedures of the mutual fund or life insurance company, or as required by federal or state law or regulation, including, without limitation, any “in-and-out” trading of mutual fund shares or the separate accounts or sub accounts of a life insurance company or any other trade of mutual fund shares or the separate accounts or sub accounts of a life insurance company designed to take advantage of the inefficiencies in the methods used by the mutual fund or life insurance company to price its shares or sub accounts. “Late trading” means: (1) any transaction involving mutual fund shares or the separate account or sub accounts of a life insurance company (including, without limitation, the placement or confirmation or cancellation of trades or orders for, or the purchase or redemption of mutual fund shares by the mutual fund or an intermediary) made after the mutual fund’s or separate account’s or sub account’s net asset value (as defined in Rule 2A-4 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, in the case of the mutual fund) for a particular date has been made, or should have been made, but which transaction is made at a price based upon said mutual fund’s or account’s net asset value for that date; or (2) any transaction defined as late trading by any federal or state statute or regulation, or any prospectus, policy, limitation, agreement or procedure of the mutual fund or life insurance company. “Soft dollar activities”, as used in this endorsement, means paying or providing or receiving or accepting fees, commissions, bonuses, gratuities, services or any other form of compensation or benefit in exchange for preferential treatment by or recommendation of or purchase of a particular “security” (including, without limitation, a mutual fund or particular class of mutual fund shares or a particular separate account or sub account of a life insurance company), including, without limitation: (1) the payment of higher commissions for directing “securities” trades to a “broker”-“dealer” in return for investment

INVESTIGATION, SETTLEMENT AND DEFENSE ENDORSEMENT

The following information, and signature by our authorized representative, is required only when this endorsement is issued subsequent to preparation of the policy. First Named Insured: Policy Number: Effective Date of This Endorsement: This endorsement forms a part of the policy to which it is attached. It is effective on the inception date of the policy unless otherwise stated above. In consideration of the premium charged, it is understood and agreed that SECTION II B. is amended to read as follows:

B. INVESTIGATION, SETTLEMENT AND DEFENSE

We have the right and duty to defend, as part of and subject to the applicable Limit(s) of Liability hereunder, any “suit” brought against the insured because of a “wrongful act” to which this policy applies and which seeks “damages” which are payable under the terms of this policy, even if any of the allegations of the “suit” are groundless, false or fraudulent. We will choose the lawyer to defend any such “suit.” If an arbitration proceeding is brought with respect to a “suit”, we will be entitled to exercise all the insured’s rights in the choice of arbitrators and the conduct of the proceedings. Subject to the applicable Limit(s) of Liability, we will pay all “defense costs” which are in excess of the applicable “retention”.

We may investigate any “written claim” or “suit” as we deem appropriate.

We have the right, with the First Named Insured’s consent, to make any settlement of a “written claim” or “suit” as we deem expedient. The First Named Insured must consent to a settlement of a “written claim” or “suit” which we recommend, and which is acceptable to the claimant(s) (a “settlement opportunity”), within 15 days of the date the First Named Insured is first made aware of the settlement opportunity. In the event the First Named Insured fails or refuses to consent to the settlement within the 15 days, our liability for the “written claim” or “suit” shall not exceed the lesser of (1) the amount, in excess of the applicable “retention”, for which we could have settled the “written claim” or “suit”, including “defense costs” incurred by us, or with our written consent, up to the date of such failure or refusal to consent or (2) the actual amount for which the “written claim” or “suit” was settled thereafter in excess of the applicable “retention”, including applicable “defense costs”.

In the event the First Named Insured fails or refuses to consent to a settlement opportunity, we shall have the right, but not the duty, to continue the defense of the “written claim” or “suit” thereafter. If we continue the defense of the “written claim” or “suit”, we may, at any time thereafter, withdraw from the further defense of said “written claim” or “suit” by tendering control of the defense to the First Named Insured.

In all events, our duty to defend any “suit”, or to pay any settlement or judgment or “defense costs” relating thereto, ends after we have paid our applicable Limit(s) of Liability as set forth in SECTION V. The Limits of Liability set forth in SECTION V include all payments for “defense costs” incurred by us, or incurred by the insured with our written consent, in excess of the applicable “retention” and within the applicable Limits(s) of Liability. All “defense costs” which are in excess of the applicable “retention” shall first be subtracted from the applicable Limit(s) of Liability with the remainder, if any, being the amount available to pay “damages”. If the applicable Limit(s) of Liability is/are exhausted by the payment of settlements, judgments, awards and/or “defense costs” prior to the reduction of any pending “suit” against an insured to settlement, final judgment or award, we shall have the right to withdraw from any further defense thereof by tendering control of the defense of said “suit” to the First Named Insured.

The insured(s) shall not admit liability for or settle any “written claim” or “suit” or incur any “defense costs” without our prior written consent. If we withdraw from the defense of a “written claim” or “suit” following the First Named Insured’s failure or refusal to consent to a settlement, it will not be necessary for us to consent to any settlement or “defense costs” incurred thereafter. However, our liability with respect to any such “written claim” or “suit” shall be limited as aforesaid.

Nothing herein contained shall vary, alter, waive or extend any of the terms, conditions, provisions, agreements, limitations or exclusions of this policy, other than as stated above.

NAMED INSUREDS ENDORSEMENT The following information, and signature by an authorized representative, is required only when this endorsement is issued subsequent to the preparation of this policy: First Named Insured: Policy Number: Effective Date Of This Endorsement: This endorsement forms a part of the policy to which it is attached. It is effective on the inception date of the policy unless stated otherwise above. In consideration of the premium charged, and not withstanding any other provisions of this policy, it is understood and agreed as follows:

1. The member of the National Association of Professional Agents and the Financial Services Professional Liability Purchasing Group listed on the Master Policy Named Insureds Endorsement and the member’s Master Policy Certificate of Insurance, who, prior to the later of his/her Coverage Inception Date indicated on said Certificate of Insurance or the date he/she signed his/her Application For Insurance under this Program, and as a condition precedent to any coverage under this policy, including any obligation to indemnify, defend or pay “defense costs”, except as otherwise approved by us, (1) had never had any claim, suit or arbitration against him/her/it for any alleged malpractice, error, omission, mistake or other wrongful act within the last ten years, (2) after reviewing his/her/its records, had no knowledge or information of any fact situation, allegation or incident that might result in a complaint, claim, suit or arbitration against him/her/it, (3) was not aware of or involved in any fee dispute with a “client”, (4) had never had his/her/its professional license or registration denied, suspended, revoked, non-renewed, or restricted in any way, (5) had never been disciplined, fined or suspended by the SEC, FINRA, a state securities, corporation or insurance department or other regulatory authority, and was not under investigation by any of these authorities, (6) had never been formally accused of violating any professional association’s code of ethics or convicted of any felony or misdemeanor criminal offense, (7) had never had any contract or appointment with any insurance company, “broker”-“dealer” or other organization suspended, terminated, non-renewed or restricted for cause, and (8) had never had any application for any professional liability insurance policy or fidelity bond requested to be withdrawn, or declined, or had any such policy or bond canceled, issued on restrictive terms, or refused renewal, is a named insured under this policy, as of the later of his/he/its Coverage Inception Date, or the effective date of this policy, and prior to the end of his/her/its “policy period” as set forth below, for the Coverage Option(s) and Limits of Liability Option(s) specified below opposite his/her/its name and for which he/she/it is eligible in accordance with the terms of any such Coverage Option with respect to covered “wrongful acts” occurring on or after his/her/its “retroactive date”, and prior to the end of his/her/its “policy period”. A named insured’s “policy period” shall commence as of the later of his/he/its Coverage Inception Date, or the effective date of this policy and terminate one year later unless sooner terminated pursuant to the cancellation provisions of this policy or as set forth below.

2. Except as provided below in the case of a “new insured”, a named insured's "retroactive date" shall be the first date that he/she/it has been continuously insured, up to his/her/its Coverage Inception Date set forth below, for professional liability coverage (errors and omissions coverage) for the type(s) of coverage provided to said insured by this policy. For example, if this policy provides coverage for an insured's acts both as a "life insurance agent” and Series 6 “registered representative" and the insured has had professional liability insurance coverage for his acts a "life insurance agent" continuously since September 1, 1991, but only since June 1, 1996 for his acts as a Series 6 "registered representative", that insured would have the following "retroactive dates" under this policy: (1) September 1, 1991 for coverage for "wrongful acts" committed as a "life insurance agent"; and (2) June 1, 1996 for coverage for "wrongful acts" committed as a Series 6 "registered representative". If an insured seeks coverage under this policy for a "wrongful act" committed prior to his/her/its Coverage Inception Date, he/she/it will have to provide evidence, satisfactory to us, of continuous professional liability insurance coverage for that type of "wrongful act", dating back at least to the date of that “wrongful act”, in order for there to be any coverage for “damages”, defense or “defense costs”, under this policy for the insured for that "wrongful act".

The “retroactive date” for a “new insured” will be the later of one year prior to the date of that insured’s Application for Insurance under this Program or that insured’s first date of continuous professional liability coverage for the types of coverage applying to that insured under this policy. For example, if this policy provides coverage for a “new insured's” acts both as a "life insurance agent” and Series 6 “registered representative" and the insured has had professional liability insurance coverage for his acts a "life insurance agent" continuously for a year prior to his/her Coverage Inception Date but only since his/her Coverage Inception Date for his acts as a Series 6 "registered representative", that

Page 33: FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY ......2019/03/01  · FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE POLICY (Claims Made and Reported) CERTIFICATE POLICY Administered

NAMED INSUREDS ENDORSEMENT Page 2

insured would have the following "retroactive dates" under this policy: one year prior to his/her Coverage Inception Date for coverage for "wrongful acts" committed as a "life insurance agent"; and (2) his/her Coverage Inception Date for coverage for "wrongful acts" committed as a Series 6 "registered representative". If an insured seeks coverage under this policy for a "wrongful act" committed prior to his/her Coverage Inception Date, he/she will have to provide evidence, satisfactory to us, of continuous professional liability insurance coverage for that type of "wrongful act", dating back at least to the date of that “wrongful act”, in order for there to be any coverage for “damages”, defense or “defense costs”, under this policy for the insured for that "wrongful act".

3. In case of cancellation of coverage by a named insured or by his/her/its premium finance company, return premium shall be computed on the usual short rate basis subject to a minimum earned premium of one month of coverage for that insured. Earned premium, dues, administrative fees and any applicable taxes will not be returned to the insured. Any return premium shall be remitted to the insured via the Administrator for this Program.

4. The following amended or additional definitions apply to the coverage afforded under this policy:

"Life insurance agent" means an “individual” or “entity” who/which is properly licensed by applicable regulatory authorities to act as an agent, broker, solicitor or consultant with respect to the sale of, or advice with respect to, the life, health, disability and accident insurance and annuity products for which he / she / it has coverage under this policy and which products, if required to be authorized or approved for sale by applicable regulatory authorities in the state of any such sale or advice, have been so authorized or approved. “Life insurance agent” does not include anyone while acting as a general agent or in any similar capacity for a life insurance company if he / she / it has or supervises any “life insurance agent” sub agents.

"Property and casualty insurance agent" means an “individual” or “entity” who/which is properly licensed by applicable regulatory authorities to act as an agent, broker, solicitor or consultant with respect to the sale of, or provision of advice with respect to, the property and casualty insurance products for which said “individual” or “entity” has coverage under this policy and which products, if required to be authorized or approved for sale by applicable regulatory authorities in the state of any such sale or advice, have been so authorized or approved. “Property and casualty insurance agent” does not include an “individual” or “entity” who/which is acting as a managing general agent or in any similar capacity for an insurance company including, without limitation, providing services with respect to underwriting of policies and settling of claims.

“Total commission and fee income” means a named insured “individual’s” or agency’s total commission and fee income from all “professional financial services” provided by that “individual” or agency for which coverage is sought by the “individual” or agency under this policy. For example, if an “individual” only seeks coverage under this policy for acts as a “life insurance agent” but also acts as real estate agent, only his/her commission and fee income from acts as a “life insurance agent” would be counted toward his “total commission and fee income” for purposes of coverage under this policy.

”New insured” means an “individual” named insured who (1) first received his/her “life insurance agent” and, if applicable, “property & casualty insurance agent” license(s) within two years of applying for insurance coverage under this Program, and (2) who has earned less than $100,000.00 in “total commission and fee income” for the one year period immediately preceding his/her Application for Insurance under this Program. An “individual” who had been licensed for more than two years prior to the date of his/her Application for Insurance under this Program as either a “life insurance agent” or a “property & casualty insurance agent”, or who had “total commission and fee income” of $100,000.00 or more during the one year period immediately preceding his/her Application for Insurance under this Program is not a “new insured” and does not qualify for coverage as a “new insured”.

“1” Means a “new insured”.

NAMED INSUREDS ENDORSEMENT Page 6

The Limits of Liability for P & C Coverage are shared with those provided to the named insured under that insured’s chosen Coverage Option “A”, ”B” or “C”. If the Limits of Liability chosen by a named insured for Coverage Option “A”, ”B” or “C” are higher than those chosen by that insured for P & C Coverage, the chosen P & C Coverage Option Limits of Liability will be Sub Limits of Liability of the named insured’s coverage under Coverage Option “A”, ”B” or “C”.

c. Subsection J. Cancellation is replaced in its entirety by the following:

“J. Cancellation

1. The First Named Insured may cancel this policy entirely, or as to any insured under this policy, at any time by giving us written notice stating when, thereafter, the cancellation is to take effect.

2. We may cancel this policy at any time in its entirety, or as to any insured, by mailing or delivering to the First Named Insured written notice of cancellation, stating the reason for cancellation, at least:

a. fifteen days before the effective date of cancellation if we cancel for non-payment of premium; or

b. forty-five days before the effective date of cancellation if we cancel for any other reason.

3. We will send written notice by registered or certified mail or deliver written notice to the First Named Insured's last mailing address known to us.

4. Notice of cancellation will state the effective date of cancellation. The “policy period” for insured(s) affected by the cancellation will end on that date.

5. In case of cancellation by the First Named Insured, or by the insured’s premium finance company, we will refund unearned premium on the usual short rate basis, subject to retention by us of the Minimum Policy Premium specified in the Declarations and less any sums due us under this policy.

In case of cancellation by us, we will refund any unearned premium on a pro rata basis, subject to retention by us of the Minimum Policy Premium specified in the Declarations and less any sums due us under this policy.

If we do not refund the unearned premium with the notice of cancellation, we will refund it within a reasonable time after the date cancellation is effective; but refund or tender of the unearned premium is not required to make a valid cancellation of this policy.”

d. Subsection K. Extended Reporting Period is replaced in its entirety by the following:

“K. Extended Reporting Period. If we cancel or non-renew this policy in total or as to any named insured, or if any “qualifying change in coverage” occurs during the policy period or upon renewal, the First Named Insured has the right to have issued an endorsement providing a two year “extended reporting period” following the effective date of said “qualifying change in coverage”, cancellation or non-renewal, during which an “individual” or “entity” who/which was an insured immediately prior to the effective date of said “qualifying change in coverage”, cancellation or non-renewal may present to us "written claims" arising out of "wrongful acts" occurring during the "coverage period" for said insured and otherwise covered under the terms of this policy.

However, an “extended reporting period” will not apply to cancellation or non-renewal due to non-payment of premium, failure to comply with terms or conditions of the policy or fraud. In addition, any “extended reporting period” for previously existing coverage that is newly excluded will only apply to the newly excluded coverage.

During this "extended reporting period", any "written claim" presented to us by an insured resulting from a "wrongful act," or a series of continuous, repeated or "interrelated wrongful acts", for which a "written claim" had been presented to us under the terms of a predecessor policy issued by us or by an “affiliate” insurer of ours, of which this

Page 46: FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY ......2019/03/01  · FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE POLICY (Claims Made and Reported) CERTIFICATE POLICY Administered

CHANGES – VIRGINIA

Page 3

policy is a renewal or one of a series of continuous renewals or successor policies, will be treated as if it had been presented to us during the last day of coverage under that predecessor policy and will be covered by that predecessor policy, not this policy, subject to all the terms and conditions of that predecessor policy, including, without limitation, its applicable Limit(s) of Liability.

While this policy, or any policy which is a renewal of this policy or one of a series of continuous renewals of this policy, is in effect, we will continue to cover all remaining insureds, without the need to purchase an “extended reporting period endorsement”, with respect to “written claims”, otherwise covered under the terms of this policy or said renewal policy, as applicable, arising out of “wrongful acts” committed by a “representative” who has ceased to be associated with the First Named Insured; provided, this continuing coverage shall not apply in the case of a departed “financial services professional” as to whom we have canceled coverage or refused to renew coverage or who has been terminated for cause by the First Named Insured or any other insured. In the latter cases, it will be necessary for the First Named Insured to buy an “extended reporting period endorsement” covering that “financial services professional”, as otherwise provided in this subsection, for there to be any continuing coverage for any insured with respect to “written claims” arising out of the “wrongful acts” of said “financial services professional”.

If the First Named Insured purchases an “extended reporting period endorsement” following a “qualifying change in coverage”, cancellation or non-renewal of this policy, we will also cover, pursuant to the terms of that endorsement, each “financial services professional” who was a named insured on this policy as of such “qualifying change in coverage”, cancellation or non-renewal, for “written claims” arising out of “financial services”, otherwise covered under the terms of this policy, which were rendered during the “coverage period” for that “financial services professional”.

To obtain an "extended reporting period endorsement”, the First Named Insured must, within thirty days of the effective date of such “qualifying change in coverage”, cancellation or non-renewal, give us written notice requesting the issuance of such an endorsement and pay an additional premium for that endorsement as determined by our rules, rates, and regulations in effect at that time. If the First Named Insured fails to purchase an “extended reporting period endorsement” within that thirty day period, there will be no further coverage under this policy with respect to any insured affected by said “qualifying change in coverage”, cancellation or non-renewal, effective as of the effective date of such “qualifying change in coverage”, cancellation or non-renewal. We have no obligation to offer an “extended reporting period endorsement” to anyone other than the First Named Insured. The insurance we provide during an "extended reporting period" will be excess over any other valid and collectible insurance available to the insured.

If an “extended reporting period endorsement” is in effect, we will provide Limit(s) of Liability with respect to any covered "written claim" first made against an insured and reported to us during the “extended reporting period” equal to the applicable Limit(s) of Liability applying to that insured at the end of that insured’s “policy period”.

An "extended reporting period" will not extend any "policy period". All premium paid for an "extended reporting period endorsement” shall be fully earned by us upon issuance of the endorsement and will not be refunded.

If we do not offer to renew this policy at the same premium, Limits of Liability or “retention” as apply to this policy, this will not be considered a cancellation or non-renewal by us.

With respect to this Extended Reporting Period provision only, “qualifying change in coverage” means:

1. The “retroactive date” is changed such that it is later than the date shown in the Declarations or an applicable endorsement;

2. A “retroactive date” newly applies to coverage where none was previously shown in the Declarations or an applicable endorsement;

3. This policy no longer applies to "wrongful acts" on a claims-made basis; or

4. Previously existing coverage under this policy is newly excluded.” e. Subsection L. Concealment, Misrepresentation Fraud or Material Change is amended by the adding the following

paragraph:

“We will not deny or rescind coverage under this policy, based on concealment or misrepresentation on an application, unless the concealment or misrepresentation was material to the risk that we assumed in issuing this policy and has proven untrue.”

Page 47: FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY ......2019/03/01  · FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE POLICY (Claims Made and Reported) CERTIFICATE POLICY Administered

CHANGES – VIRGINIA Page 4 f. The following Subsection is added to SECTION VII – CONDITIONS:

“Q. Non-renewal

1. If we elect not to renew this policy, we will mail or deliver a notice of non-renewal to the First Named Insured at the address shown in the Declarations, stating the reason for non-renewal, at least:

a. fifteen days before the expiration date if the non-renewal is due to nonpayment of premium; or

b. forty-five days before the expiration date if the non-renewal is for any other reason.

2. We will send written notice by registered or certified mail or deliver written notice of non-renewal to the First Named Insured's last mailing address known to us.”

2. The following Subsection is added to SECTION VI—WHAT WE DO NOT COVER—EXCLUSIONS:

“W. Revocation or Suspension of License. We do not cover claims which arise out of or are contributed to by a “wrongful act,” committed by an insured on or after the effective date said insured’s license, registration or other right to act as a “broker”-“dealer” or to provide “financial services” or practice as a “financial services professional” is non-renewed by the insured or is revoked or suspended by, or surrendered at the request of, any regulatory authority.”

Nothing herein contained shall vary, alter, waive or extend any of the terms, conditions, provisions, agreements, limitations or exclusions of this policy, other than as stated above.

"wrongful acts" or series of continuous, repeated or "interrelated wrongful acts", shall be considered one "wrongful act" for purposes of the application of our

Limits of Liability and the applicable "retention”. A "wrongful act" which is continuing in nature shall be deemed, for all purposes of this policy, to occur only on the

date on which such "wrongful act" commences and not on any subsequent date. A series of continuous, repeated or "interrelated wrongful acts" shall be deemed

to have occurred on the date on which the earliest of such "wrongful acts" commences. If a continuing "wrongful act" or a series of repeated or "interrelated

wrongful acts" is committed by an insured, or by any “individual(s)” for whose acts such insured in legally responsible, prior to such insured’s applicable

"retroactive date", there shall be no coverage under this policy for any insured for any of those "wrongful acts" even if some of those acts occur during the “policy

period”.

SECTION II --- COVERAGE AGREEMENTS

A. COVERAGE

We will pay on behalf of the insured all sums in excess of the "retention" which do not exceed the applicable Limit of Liability and which the insured shall

become legally obligated to pay as "damages" because of a "wrongful act” to which this policy applies committed by the insured, or by any “individual” for

whose acts the insured is legally responsible, but only if the "wrongful act", or the first in the series of continuous, repeated or “interrelated wrongful acts”:

1. arises solely out of or in connection with the provision of covered "financial services" for the “client” of a named insured or a “representative”;

2. occurs during the "coverage period" for both the insured and the “individual”, if any, for whose acts the insured is legally responsible; and

3. results in a "written claim" which is first made against the insured and presented to us during the insured’s "policy period"; provided, in case of

cancellation or non renewal of this policy with respect to an insured, if a “written claim” is first made against that insured during the last fifteen days of that

insured’s “policy period", that “written claim” may be presented to us no later than fifteen days immediately following the effective date of such cancellation

or non renewal if, as a condition precedent to that right, that insured has not procured or does not have available to him/her/it other insurance which

applies to said "written claim" or which would apply in the absence of this policy.

B. INVESTIGATION, SETTLEMENT AND DEFENSE

We have the right and duty to defend, as part of and subject to the applicable Limit of Liability hereunder, any "suit" brought against the insured because of a

"wrongful act" to which this policy applies and which seeks "damages" which are payable under the terms of this policy, even if any of the allegations of the

"suit" are groundless, false or fraudulent. We will choose the lawyer to defend any such "suit." If an arbitration proceeding is brought with respect to a "suit",

we will be entitled to exercise all the insured's rights in the choice of arbitrators and the conduct of the proceedings. Subject to the applicable Limit of

Liability, we will pay all “defense costs” which are in excess of the applicable “retention”.

We may investigate and settle any "written claim" or "suit" as we deem appropriate.

Our duty to defend any "suit", or to pay any settlement or judgment or "defense costs" relating thereto, ends after we have paid our applicable Limit of

Liability as set forth in SECTION V. The Limits of Liability set forth SECTION V include all payments for "defense costs" incurred by us, or incurred by the

insured with our written consent, which are in excess of the applicable “retention”. All "defense costs" shall first be subtracted from the applicable Limit of

Liability with the remainder, if any, being the amount available to pay "damages". If the applicable Limit of Liability is exhausted by the payment of

settlements, judgments, awards and/or "defense costs" prior to the reduction of any pending "suit" against an insured to settlement, final judgment or award,

we shall have the right to withdraw from any further defense thereof by tendering control of the defense of said "suit" to the insured.

C. OTHER PAYMENTS

1. With respect to such insurance as is afforded by this policy, we will pay, as part of the applicable Limit of Liability the following:

Page 54: FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY ......2019/03/01  · FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE POLICY (Claims Made and Reported) CERTIFICATE POLICY Administered

FNX-P-61 (12-07) Page 5 of 12

a. all costs taxed against the insured in any "suit" defended by us and all interest required to be paid on the entire amount of any judgment therein which

does not exceed the applicable Limit of Liability hereunder and which accrues after judgment is entered in said "suit" and before we have paid, or

deposited in court, such part of such judgment as does not exceed the applicable Limit of Liability;

b. premiums on bonds to release attachments in any such "suit" for an amount not in excess of the applicable Limit of Liability of this policy, but we shall

have no obligation to apply for or furnish or provide collateral for any such bonds;

c. premiums on appeals bonds which may be required, in our sole judgment, in any such "suit" defended by us, but we shall have no obligation to apply

for or furnish or provide collateral for any such bonds; and

d. reasonable expenses, other than loss of earnings, wages, salaries, overhead or benefit expense of the insured, or employees, officers or independent

contractors of the insured, incurred by the insured at our request in assisting us in the investigation, settlement, defense or appeal of any "written

claim" or "suit".

2. With respect to such insurance as is afforded by this policy, we will pay, in addition to the applicable Limit of Liability, all costs and expenses incurred by

us other than "defense costs".

SECTION III --- APPLICATION OF POLICY

This policy applies to liability for "damages" caused by "wrongful acts" committed anywhere in the world provided any "suit" for such "damages" is brought within

the “policy territory”. However, we may elect at any time, at our sole discretion, to investigate, settle or defend any “written claim” or "suit" brought anywhere

outside the “policy territory”. A "written claim" is "presented to us" when we receive the "written claim" or a copy thereof.

If this policy applies to a “written claim” arising out of a “wrongful act” (the first “written claim”), an “individual” or “entity” which is an insured under both this policy

and a renewal, or one of a series of continuous renewals, of this policy, may present to us, during his/her/its “policy period” under such renewal policy, additional

“written claims” arising out of that same “wrongful act”, or series of continuous, repeated or “interrelated wrongful acts”. Any such additional “written claims” will

then be considered to have been presented to us under this policy as part of the first “written claim” and shall be covered by this policy subject to all of the terms

and conditions of this policy, including, without limitation, the Limits of Liability and “retention”.

SECTION IV --- WHO IS INSURED UNDER THIS POLICY

Each of the following is an insured under this policy to the extent set forth below:

A. The First Named Insured.

B. Each “financial services professional“ who is a named insured on this policy.

C. If a named insured “entity” is a partnership, association, corporation or limited liability company, each of that insured’s present, former and future partners,

members, officers and directors, but each is covered only for his/her vicarious liability as a result of such status and arising out of the provision of covered

“financial services” by a named insured or a “representative” named on this policy; provided, no such partner, member, officer or director is an insured

under this policy with respect to liability arising out of or in conjunction with his/her own acts or omissions as a “financial services professional” unless

he/she is a named insured on this policy.

D. If a named insured is an “entity”, each of that “entity’s” present, former or future employees who is not a “financial services professional", but only while

acting within the course and scope of his/her duties as an employee of the said insured in connection with the provision of covered "financial services" by

a named insured or a “representative” named on this policy.

E. Each other named insured.

F. The “spouse” of a named insured, but solely with respect to his/her vicarious liability, arising out of his/her status as the “spouse” of said named insured,

as a result of covered “wrongful acts” of said named insured, including, without limitation, “written claims” seeking “damages” recoverable from marital

community property, property jointly held by the insured and his/her “spouse” or property transferred from an insured to his/her “spouse”; provided, there is

no coverage under this policy for “written claims” arising out of any actual or alleged “wrongful acts” of said “spouse”.

G. The executor, administrator, guardian or other legal representative of an insured who dies, becomes incompetent, or bankrupt, but only while acting in

his/her capacity as such and with respect to “wrongful acts” for which said deceased, incompetent or bankrupt insured would otherwise be covered under

this policy.

SECTION V --- LIMITATIONS ON OUR LIABILITY AND RETENTION

A. LIMITS OF LIABILITY

This policy may provide coverage for a number of insureds. Regardless of the number of insureds under this policy, the number of "wrongful acts", the

number of claimants or "written claims" presented to us or "suits" brought, or the amount of "defense costs" incurred, the most we will pay under this policy is

as follows:

Page 55: FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY ......2019/03/01  · FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE POLICY (Claims Made and Reported) CERTIFICATE POLICY Administered

FNX-P-61 (12-07) Page 6 of 12

1. Policy Aggregate. The applicable Policy Aggregate Limit of Liability shown in Item 5 of the Declarations or an endorsement is the most we will pay for or

on behalf of all insureds under this policy for all "damages" and "defense costs" combined because of all "wrongful acts" to which this policy applies.

2. “Representative” Aggregate. If a “Representative” Aggregate is specified in the Declarations, subject to the above provision with respect to Policy

Aggregate, the most we will pay for all "damages" and "defense costs" combined for, on behalf of, or arising out of or as a result of all "wrongful acts" to

which this policy applies committed by a “representative", or by any “individual” for whose acts said “representative” is legally responsible, or by any

"affiliate" of said "representative" which is a named insured, is the Limit of Liability shown in Item 5. of the Declarations or an endorsement as

"Representative” Aggregate.

3. Each “Wrongful Act” Aggregate. Subject to the above provisions with respect to Policy Aggregate, and “Representative” Aggregate if applicable, the most

we will pay for or on behalf of all insureds under this policy for all "damages" and "defense costs" combined because of a "wrongful act" or a series of

continuous, repeated or "interrelated wrongful acts" to which this policy applies, is the applicable Each “Wrongful Act” Aggregate Limit of Liability shown in

Item 5 of the Declarations or an endorsement.

All "written claims" for "damages" and related "defense costs" which arise out of a "wrongful act", or a series of continuous, repeated or "interrelated

wrongful acts", will be considered to have arisen out of a single "wrongful act" for these purposes, and such claims will be subject to the applicable Each

“Wrongful Act” Aggregate Limit of Liability. For example, and without limiting the foregoing, all claims arising out of the failure to adequately disclose the

risks associated with the same “security”, or the failure of a “broker”-“dealer” to perform adequate due diligence on the same "security", would be

considered to have arisen out of a single "wrongful act" and would be subject to the Each “Wrongful Act” Aggregate Limit of Liability.

4. If any “written claim” covered by this policy is also covered by one or more other policies issued by us, or by any insurer “affiliate” of ours, then with

respect to such claim: (a) we shall not be liable under this policy for a greater proportion of the “damages” and “defense costs” than the applicable Limit of

Liability under this policy bears to the total applicable Limits of Liability of all such policies; and (b) the maximum amount payable under all such policies

shall not exceed the applicable Limit of Liability of that policy referred to above which has the highest applicable Limit of Liability.

B. “DAMAGES" AND "DEFENSE COSTS" INCLUDED IN LIMITS OF LIABILITY

All amounts paid with respect to a "wrongful act", including amounts paid as "damages" and amounts paid as "defense costs", are subject to the applicable

Limit of Liability. All "defense costs" with respect to "written claims" or "suits" arising out of a covered “wrongful act” shall be paid and applied first to the

applicable Limit of Liability, and the difference between such Limit of Liability and the "defense costs", if any, shall be the amount available to pay "damages"

incurred in connection with such "written claims" or "suits". The Each “Wrongful Act” Aggregate Limit of Liability shall be excess over the applicable

“retention”.

C. RETENTION

The First Named Insured shall pay all "damages" and "defense costs" incurred with respect to each “wrongful act” for which “written claims” are presented to

us, up to the amount of the applicable “retention”. The “retention” shall apply to each “wrongful act” and shall be borne by the insured and remain uninsured.

The "retention" amount shall first be applied to the payment of "defense costs". If we so request, the First Named Insured shall make direct payment within

the "retention" amount to appropriate other parties. We will only be liable for and will only pay "damages" and "defense costs" with respect to each "wrongful

act" which exceed the applicable "retention" and which do not exceed the applicable Limit of Liability. We may, at our sole option, advance the payment of

such "retention" in order to facilitate the settlement or defense of a "written claim" or “suit”. In this event, the First Named Insured shall reimburse us for such

advance within ten days of receipt of our statement therefore.

SECTION VI --- WHAT WE DO NOT COVER - EXCLUSIONS

The insurance afforded by this policy, including any obligation to defend or pay “defense costs”, does not apply to the following.

A. Other Types of Insurance Coverage. This policy is intended to provide coverage for professional liability arising out of negligence in the performance of

“financial services” for “clients” of named insureds. It is not intended to provide coverage for those types of claims or liability which are typically covered by

other types of insurance policies or coverage such as comprehensive general liability policies, homeowners policies, automobile policies, workers

compensation or employers liability policies, directors and officers liability policies, employment practices liability policies, or financial institutions or other

forms of fidelity or other types of bond coverage or their equivalent, whether or not the insured has, or is covered by any such insurance or bonds, and

whether or not the coverage provided by such insurance or bonds has been exhausted by the payment of loss, excludes coverage for such claims or is

otherwise insufficient to cover any such claims. Therefore, we will not cover, either on a direct insurance basis or as excess insurance, claims arising out of

or in connection with actual or alleged: (1) bodily injury to or sickness, disease, mental illness or death of any “individual”, including, without limitation, any

claim for mental or emotional distress or humiliation or any claim arising out of sexual harassment; provided, this exclusion does not apply to mental illness,

mobile equipment, watercraft or aircraft or any claim with respect to physical damage to or loss of use of tangible property; (3) theft, embezzlement, forgery,

fidelity bond or its equivalent; (4) injury to an “individual” arising out of or related to his/her employment or application for employment; or injury which arises

out of acts of discrimination which are prohibited by any law, order or regulation, including, without limitation, discrimination based on age, color, race, sex,

of the United States, or any state, commonwealth, territory, subdivision or municipality thereof, or the Securities Exchange Commission, the National

Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or any state insurance department or other regulatory authority, including, without limitation, laws, orders, rules and

regulations prohibiting churning or twisting. We do not cover claims arising out of any insured’s actual or alleged gaining of any profit or advantage to which

the insured was not legally entitled, including, without limitation, any profit or advantage as a result of the commingling of funds or accounts. We do not cover

arise out of: the failure of “securities” or other investments to perform according to any insured’s warranty, guarantee or contractual agreement, whether

written or oral; or a disallowed tax deduction, credit or other item on a tax return which the insured’s “client” would owe, or would not be entitled to, even in

the absence of any negligence on the part of an insured. We do not cover claims, or that portion of any claim, arising out of disputes over the amount of, or

for the return of or reimbursement of fees, commissions or other forms of compensation paid to any insured in connection with the provision of “financial

services”, including, without limitation, any “suit” or counter claim filed by an “individual” or “entity” subsequent to the institution of “suit” against such

whole or in part, is or was owned, controlled, operated or managed, directly or indirectly, by an insured, by an insured's parent company, by an "affiliate" or

SECTION VII --- CONDITIONS

A. Premium. All premiums for this policy shall be computed in accordance with our rules, rates, rating plans and procedures applicable to the insurance

afforded herein. The premium specified in the Declarations as Minimum Annual Premium is the minimum premium due on this policy for coverage for the full

"policy period" specified in the Declarations. The premium specified in the Declarations as Minimum Policy Premium is the minimum premium for this policy

regardless of the actual "policy period". Any premium paid on this policy which relates to a prior policy period for the insured shall be fully earned as of the

date of payment and shall not be included as part of the Minimum Annual Premium or Minimum Policy Premium due for this policy nor shall it be considered

when setting the premium to be paid for an “extended reporting period endorsement”.

The First Named Insured shall maintain records of such information as is necessary for premium computation and shall send to us, at our request, copies of

such records at the end of the "policy period" and at such times during the "policy period" as we may request.

B. Duties In The Event Of Error, Omission, Claim Or Suit. As soon as an insured knows of an alleged "wrongful act" which may result in a "written claim"

covered by this policy, the insured must give us written notice as soon as practicable of the details of the "wrongful act", including the circumstances giving

rise to the "wrongful act", a description of the services provided or that should have been provided, the name and address of any potential claimant and the

type and amount of injury suffered by said claimant. Include as many details as possible. If a "written claim" is made or "suit" is brought against an insured,

the insured, as a condition precedent to our obligations under this policy, must immediately send us every demand, notice, summons or other process

relating to said claim or “suit”; provided, except as provided in SECTION II A. 3. or SECTION VII K, in no event shall such “written claim” or “suit” be accepted

by us later than the last day of the insured’s “policy period”. All notices called for in this paragraph must be provided to us by a separate document, and not

just as part of a renewal application for insurance. The insured shall authorize us to obtain all records and other information we deem necessary for the

settlement, negotiation or defense of a "written claim" or "suit".

Page 59: FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY ......2019/03/01  · FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE POLICY (Claims Made and Reported) CERTIFICATE POLICY Administered

FNX-P-61 (12-07) Page 10 of 12

The insured must cooperate with us in the investigation and defense of a "written claim" or "suit". At our request, the insured must: submit to examination

under oath; assist us in making settlements or conducting "suits"; and attend and assist in obtaining the attendance of witnesses at hearings, depositions,

arbitration proceedings, trials and other proceedings. The insured must cooperate with us in enforcing any right the insured may have against any

“individual” or “entity” for contribution or indemnity. The insured must not, except at the insured's own cost, voluntarily pay any money, assume any obligation

or incur any expense without our prior written consent.

C. Suits Against Us. No suit or other action may be brought against us unless, as a condition precedent thereto, there has been full compliance with all the

terms and conditions of this policy and the obligation of the insured to pay “damages” has been finally determined either by judgment against the insured

after actual trial or arbitration or by written agreement signed by the insured, the claimant and us. Anyone who has obtained such a judgment or written

agreement will be entitled to recover under this policy to the extent of the insurance then available to the insured under this policy. No one has the right to

make us a party to a suit to determine the liability of an insured; nor shall we be impleaded by an insured or his/her/its legal representative(s).

D. Disputes With Us / Arbitration. By accepting the coverage provided by this policy, the insured agrees to be bound by the following arbitration rules in the

event that a dispute arises between the insured and us, our employees, agents or representatives with respect to coverage, liability for premiums or

"retentions", any item or condition of this policy, or any other matter arising out of or related to this policy or the relationship between us, our employees,

agents and representatives and the insured under this policy.

1. By this arbitration agreement (1) the parties intend to simplify the dispute process by the non-judicial resolution of any dispute concerning their

relationship, and (2) make it possible for us to reduce our litigation costs by resolving all disputes through arbitration in Mountain View, California.

2. In the event of any such dispute, the matter shall be resolved by binding arbitration before three privately selected arbitrators acting pursuant to the

arbitration provisions of the California Arbitration Act, Sections 1280 through 1294.2 of the Code of Civil Procedure. If a dispute subject to arbitration

hereunder should arise, either party may make a demand for arbitration by filing a demand in writing with the other party. There shall be three

arbitrators, one named in writing by each of the parties within ten days after demand for arbitration is given and a third chosen by the two appointed

arbitrators. The arbitrators appointed by the insured and us need not be independent, and may be lawyers for the parties. The third arbitrator must be

an “individual” with experience in the financial services professional liability insurance industry. Should either party refuse or neglect to join in the

appointment of the arbitrator(s) or to furnish the arbitrator(s) with any papers or information demanded, the appointed arbitrator(s) is/are empowered by

both parties to proceed ex parte. Arbitration shall take place in Mountain View, California, and the hearing before the arbitrator(s) of the matter to be

arbitrated shall be at the time and place within said city as is selected by the arbitrator(s). The arbitrator(s) shall select such time and place promptly

after his/her (or their) appointment and shall give written notice thereof to each party at least 20 days prior to the date so fixed.

3. The arbitrators shall apply the law of the State of California.

4. At the hearing, either party may present any relevant evidence and the formal rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings shall not govern.

Evidence may be admitted or excluded in the sole discretion of the arbitrator(s). Said arbitrator(s) shall hear and determine the matter and shall execute

and acknowledge their award in writing and cause a copy thereof to be delivered to each of the parties. The decision of any two arbitrator(s) shall be

final, binding and conclusive, and not subject to court review except as provided under California law. The submission of a dispute to the arbitrator(s)

may be rendered by any Superior Court having jurisdiction; or such Court may vacate, modify, or correct the award in accordance with the prevailing

sections of the California Arbitration Act. If three arbitrators are selected under the foregoing procedure but two of the three fail to reach an agreement in

the determination of the matter in question, the matter shall be decided by three new arbitrators who shall be appointed and shall proceed in the same

manner, and the process shall be repeated until a decision is finally reached by two of the three arbitrators selected. The costs of such arbitration shall

be borne equally by the parties or in such proportions as the arbitrator(s) shall determine.

5. If any party seeks to avoid these arbitration provisions, and any court shall be asked by either party to make any order concerning any dispute or

controversy in any way concerning the matters set forth above, the parties agree that the court shall apply California law. The parties also agree to

request the court to abate any such proceeding pending transfer to the courts of California for determination of the validity of these arbitration provisions.

6. Each party shall appoint and pay for any counsel appointed to represent it in such arbitration, unless otherwise provided by law.

This Section is not to be construed to give a right of action against us, our employees, agents or representatives by any one who is not an insured under this

policy.

E. Bankruptcy, Death, Incompetence Or Insolvency. The bankruptcy, death, incompetency or insolvency of an insured will not relieve us of any of our

obligations under this policy; in such event, this policy shall inure to the benefit of the legal representative of such insured, but only to the extent said insured

was insured under this policy.

F. Other Insurance. If there is other valid and collectible insurance which would apply to a "written claim" in the absence of this policy, this policy will apply as

excess insurance over that other insurance whether such insurance is stated to be primary, contributory, excess, contingent, self insurance or otherwise

unless such other insurance is written solely as excess insurance over this specifically identified policy; provided, with respect to any "written claim" first

presented to an insured within the last fifteen days of said insured’s “policy period” and then presented to us within fifteen days immediately following the

effective date of cancellation or non-renewal of coverage with respect to such insured, there shall be no coverage under this policy unless, as condition

precedent thereto, that insured has not procured or does not have available to him/her/it other insurance which applies to said “written claim” or which would

apply to said “written claim” in the absence of this policy.

FNX-P-61 (12-07) Page 11 of 12

G. Our Right To Recover From Others. If we make any payment under this policy, the insured's right to recover from anyone else for the acts giving rise to that

payment becomes ours to the extent of our payment. The insured must sign any required documents and take any steps necessary to help us secure these

rights. The insured must do nothing to impair any of our rights.

The insured may have a right to recover from another insured under this policy relating to claims paid by us. We will not exercise our rights against such

other insured except with respect to a "written claim" which arises from or is contributed to by an intentional, dishonest, fraudulent, criminal or malicious act,

error or omission of such other insured.

If we recover any amounts from another party relating to a "written claim" under this policy, after we deduct an amount equal to the "damages" and "defense

costs" we have paid or incurred and the costs of making the recovery, we will share the rest of the recovery with the following parties: first, we will pay to an

insured up to the amount the insured has paid relating to the "written claim" which is in excess of this policy's applicable Limit of Liability; second, we will pay

the First Named Insured the amount of the "retention" which the First Named Insured has paid on that "written claim".

H. Audit. We may examine and audit an insured's books and records as they relate to this insurance at any time during the "policy period" and during the three

years immediately following the end of the "policy period" for the insured.

I. Change In This Policy. Notice to any agent or knowledge possessed by any agent or other “individual” or “entity” acting on our behalf shall not effect a waiver

of or a modification of any term of this policy or stop us from asserting any rights under the terms of this policy, nor shall the terms of this policy be changed or

waived except by an endorsement issued by us and made a part of this policy. If a change in the policy requires a premium adjustment, we will adjust the

premium as of the effective date of the change.

J. Cancellation. The First Named Insured may cancel this policy entirely, or as to any insured under this policy, at any time by giving us written notice stating

when, thereafter, the cancellation is to take effect.

We may cancel this policy at any time in its entirety, or as to any insured, by sending to the First Named Insured written notice at least thirty days prior to the

date cancellation is to be effective; provided, if the First Named Insured fails to pay premium when due or to reimburse us for our payment of any portion of a

"retention", we may cancel this policy at any time by sending to the First Named Insured written notice at least ten days prior to the date cancellation is to be

effective. In either case, we will give the First Named Insured written notice of cancellation by mailing it to the last mailing address known to us for the First

Named Insured. Proof of mailing thirty days or ten days, respectively, before the effective date of such cancellation will be sufficient proof of notice of

cancellation.

This policy shall automatically be canceled as to any insured as of the effective date said insured's license, registration or other right to provide “financial

services” or practice as a "financial services professional” is non renewed by the insured or revoked, suspended by or surrendered at the request of any

regulatory authority.

In case of cancellation by the First Named Insured, or by the insured’s premium finance company, we will refund unearned premium on the usual short rate

basis, subject to retention by us of the Minimum Policy Premium specified in the Declarations and less any sums due us under this policy. For these

purposes, automatic cancellation as per the above sub paragraph or cancellation as a result of the First Named Insured's failure to pay premium or

"retentions", or due to the failure of an insured to comply with any of the other terms or conditions of this policy, or the concealment or misrepresentation of any

material fact on the insured's “Application” or the failure to disclose material changes in the information on that “Application”, shall be deemed cancellation by

the First Named Insured.

In case of cancellation by us, we will refund any unearned premium on a pro rata basis, subject to retention by us of the Minimum Policy Premium specified in

the Declarations and less any sums due us under this policy. If we do not refund the unearned premium with the notice of cancellation, we will refund it within

a reasonable time after the date cancellation is effective; but refund or tender of the unearned premium is not required to make a valid cancellation of this

policy.

K. Extended Reporting Period. If we cancel or fail or refuse to renew this policy, in total or as to any named insured, for any reason other than the failure to pay

premium due or any part of the "retention" which we have advanced, or the failure to comply with any of the other terms or conditions of this policy, or the

concealment or misrepresentation of any material fact on the insured's “Application” or the failure to disclose material changes in the information on that

“Application”, or the revocation, suspension or surrender, at the request of any regulatory authority, of the insured's license or other right to provide “financial

services” or practice as a “financial services professional”, the First Named Insured has the right to have issued an endorsement providing a one year

extended period of time, following the effective date of said cancellation or non renewal, during which an “individual” or “entity” who/which was an insured

immediately prior to the effective date of said cancellation or non renewal may present to us "written claims" arising out of "wrongful acts" occurring during the

"coverage period" for said insured and otherwise covered under the terms of this policy. During this "extended reporting period", any "written claim" presented

to us by an insured resulting from a "wrongful act," or a series of continuous, repeated or "interrelated wrongful acts", for which a "written claim" had been

presented to us under the terms of a predecessor policy issued by us or by an “affiliate” insurer of ours, of which this policy is a renewal or one of a series of

continuous renewals or successor policies, will be treated as if it had been presented to us during the last day of coverage under that predecessor policy and

will be covered by that predecessor policy, not this policy, subject to all the terms and conditions of that predecessor policy, including, without limitation, its

applicable Limit of Liability.

While this policy, or any policy which is a renewal of this policy or one of a series of continuous renewals of this policy, is in effect, we will continue to cover all

remaining insureds, without the need to purchase an “extended reporting period endorsement”, with respect to “written claims”, otherwise covered under the

terms of this policy or said renewal policy, as applicable, arising out of “wrongful acts” committed by a “representative who has ceased to be associated with

the First Named Insured; provided, this continuing coverage shall not apply in the case of a departed “financial services professional” as to whom we have

canceled coverage or refused to renew coverage or who has been terminated for cause by the First Named Insured or any other insured. In the latter cases, it

Page 61: FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY ......2019/03/01  · FINANCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE POLICY (Claims Made and Reported) CERTIFICATE POLICY Administered

FNX-P-61 (12-07) Page 12 of 12

will be necessary for the First Named Insured to buy an “extended reporting period endorsement” covering that “financial services professional”, as otherwise

provided in this subsection, for there to be any continuing coverage for any insured with respect to “written claims” arising out of the “wrongful acts” of said

“financial services professional”.

If the First Named Insured purchases an “extended reporting period endorsement” following cancellation or non-renewal of this policy, we will also cover,

pursuant to the terms of that endorsement, each “financial services professional” who was a named insured on this policy, as of such cancellation or non-

renewal date, for “written claims” arising out of “financial services”, otherwise covered under the terms of this policy, which were rendered during the “coverage

period” for that “financial services professional”.

To obtain an "extended reporting period endorsement”, the First Named Insured must, within thirty days of the effective date of such cancellation or non-

renewal, give us written notice requesting the issuance of such an endorsement and pay an additional premium for that endorsement as determined by our

rules, rates, and regulations in effect at that time. If the First Named Insured fails to purchase an “extended reporting period endorsement” within that thirty day

period, there will be no further coverage under this policy with respect to any insured affected by said cancellation or non-renewal, effective as of the effective

date of such cancellation or non-renewal. We have no obligation to offer an “extended reporting period endorsement” to anyone other than the First Named

Insured. The insurance we provide during an "extended reporting period" will be excess over any other valid and collectible insurance available to the insured.

The "extended reporting period" will not reinstate or increase the Limits of Liability or extend the "policy period". All premium paid for an "extended reporting

period endorsement” shall be fully earned by us upon issuance of the endorsement and will not be refunded.

If we do not offer to renew this policy at the same premium, Limits of Liability or “retention” as apply to this policy, this will not be considered a cancellation or

non-renewal by us.

L. Concealment, Misrepresentation, Fraud Or Material Change. We will not provide any coverage under this policy to an insured who intentionally conceals or

misrepresents any material fact or circumstance relating to this insurance, including, without limitation, any misstatement of fact, material misrepresentations

or failure to disclose material facts on the “Application”, or who fails to tell us during the “policy period” of material changes in the information provided to us

on said “Application”. In the case of concealment or misrepresentation of any material fact or circumstance relating to this insurance, we shall have the right,

at our sole option, to deny any coverage under this policy for any claim relating to such material fact or circumstance, or to rescind coverage under this policy

with respect to the insured involved, or rescind this policy in its entirety, thereby voiding all coverage under this policy. In the later case, the Minimum Policy

Premium stated on the Declarations shall be reduce by fifty percent, and all other premium paid with respect to this policy shall be returned to the First

Named Insured. In all other cases, there shall be no change in premium.

M. Transfer Of Insured's Rights And Duties. An insured may not transfer or assign any rights or duties under this policy unless we give our written consent to

that transfer or assignment by endorsement to this policy.

N. Multiple Insureds. More than one “individual” or “entity” may be named as an insured under this policy. The inclusion of multiple insureds under this policy will

not increase our liability beyond the Limits of Liability set forth in SECTION V.

By accepting this policy, the insureds agree that the First Named Insured is authorized to act on behalf of all other insureds with respect to: giving and

receiving notices of cancellation or non-renewal; accepting any endorsement issued to be a part of this policy; paying premiums and "retentions"; receiving

any return premium which may become due; giving notices to insureds that they have been added to or deleted from this policy; informing other insureds of

the policy terms and conditions; requesting an “extended reporting period endorsement”; and keeping us informed of any material changes in the type or

composition of the business or organization of the insureds under this policy.

O. Merger. If, during the "policy period", any insured shall acquire or be acquired or merged, consolidated or otherwise combined with any other “entity”,

immediate written notice of that fact must be give to us. There shall be no coverage under this policy with respect to any "wrongful acts" committed by an

insured, or any of its employees, agents or representatives, subsequent to the date of said acquisition, merger, consolidation or other combination unless this

policy is endorsed by us to provide such coverage. There shall be no coverage under this policy with respect to the merged, consolidated or combined “entity”

unless we issue an endorsement to provide such coverage.

P. Claims, Notices And Requests. All “suit” papers and other “written claims” under this policy shall be sent to us c/o ProSurance Group, Inc. at 2685 Marine

Way, Suite 1408, Mountain View, CA 94043. All other notices, demands or requests provided for in this policy shall be in writing and sent to us c/o

ProSurance Group, Inc. at 2685 Marine Way, Mountain View, Suite 1408, CA 94043.

This policy shall not be valid unless countersigned below by our authorized agent or representative.
